- The titration curve of alanine shows the ionization of two functional groups with pK values of 2.34 and 9.69, corresponding to the ionization of the carboxyl and the protonated amino groups, respectively. The titration of di-, tri-, and larger oligopeptides of alanine also shows the ionization of only two functional groups, although the experimental pK values are different. The table summarizes the trend in pK values.

The figure shows a stained SDS polyacrylamide gel with a single band in lane I and three bands of lower molecular weight in lane 2. Lane I contains a preparation of chymotrypsin and lane 2 contains chymotrypsin pre-treated with performic acid. 1 2 Why does performic acid treatment of chymotrypsin generate three bands in lane 2? ° Chymotrypsin self-digests on the carboxyl-terminal side of phenylalanine, tryptophan, or tyrosine residues. The three peptides are impurities in the original chymotrypsin sample. Performic acid cleaves proteins on the carboxyl-terminal side of lysine and arginine residues. Performic acid cleaves the disulfide bonds holding together the three subunits of chymotrypsin. Correct Answerarrow_forward
